Feeling better

I had a stomach virus or something going on in my gut for about 3 days. I couldn't really eat or drink very much. I lost about 5 lbs. Not good! Mostly water, though. I really worked to keep from vomiting so I could at least have water in my body a bit longer. I kept talking to the baby and feeling connected and breathing out healing energy. I felt a bit weak but overall ok. I'm finally feeling better. My friend Rosie brought me over some cultured veggies and a 16 strand probiotic to help me out. I am rebuilding my gut slowly but surely. It's strange how something can grip a body like that. I have regained all my weight and feel confident that, of course, the baby wasn't effected at all.

On a different note, I picked some roses today from my front yard and they smell so wonderful. I'm reminded of Abe Lincoln's wonderful quote, "We can complain because rose bushes have thorns or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses." I'm rejoicing. I suppose that's where I am right now. I want to always stay there. I'm feeling a new consciousness and I love it.
